access to cyberspace and its unlimited destinations and opportunities for
00:05
learning and growth has just been boosted by government's latest efforts
00:10
to build in connectivity throughout the country. Best of all, this inestimable
00:15
entitlement that reaches to the most remote places of the archipelago is free
00:20
of charge as our Claisel Partilia reports.
00:25
The administration of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. is set to broaden
00:31
delivery of free internet access. The government is prioritizing expanding
00:37
free internet coverage in geographically isolated and disadvantaged areas or the
00:43
most remote locations in the country. On the president's meeting with the
00:48
Regional Development Council, the government has established a new system
00:52
to improve internet connectivity. This includes the construction of common
00:58
towers where a single tower is shared by two or more internet service providers
01:03
through leasing agreements. The government is also adopting a new
01:07
internet satellite system. With the help of a satellite dish, users can access the
01:13
internet without the need for extensive infrastructure. According to Malacanang,
01:19
this initiative is crucial in enhancing public capacity, particularly in
01:24
education and livelihood. Using internet is not just a luxury, it's a necessity. So
01:32
with this, if we can improve the access of all the Filipino peoples to internet
01:38
so that they can at least research, make good use of this internet, it will
01:46
definitely improve the livelihood, not only the livelihood, even the intellectual
01:51
capacity of every Filipino. From 4,469 locations in June 2022, the number of
01:58
areas with free Wi-Fi has increased to 15,000 as of January 2025. This expansion
02:06
is also expected to accelerate government services, especially as business permits
02:11
and other documents can now be processed online. The government is also
02:16
addressing other essential needs of Filipinos.
02:20
The Department of Energy earlier announced that 25 power projects are set to be
02:46
in the Visayas, which will generate 1,900 megawatts of electricity, enough to power
02:54
over 6 million households.
